Four seated In a pizza place Sharing a pizza Cheesy and delicious New York style Talk between bites Reaching for the Parmesan The table slides Hits one of them Right in the gut Pizza drops Back on the paper plate Grease splattering Eyes wide Heads turn Bodies shift in their seats To see the sound Strange noise From the little table Table of four Laughing it off All things resume They continue to eat That greasy, cheesy pizza Talk of life Current events Bites of pizza Two slices left Split and taken Being eaten When... Slide The table So killer Slides to one Hitting their gut Making them grunt Pizza drops Heads turn Bodies shift Movement from all about The pizza place Eyes fall upon them Laughter Then the table is fixed Repositioned Then the pizza Cheesy and greasy Is devoured Talk goes on All resumes After a time The four leave Cleaning up their trash And leaving behind That killer table. - Jay M November 28th, 2019

Killer Table
Four seated In a pizza place Sharing a pizza Cheesy and delicious New York style Talk between bites Reaching for the Parmesan The table slides Hits one of them Right in the gut Pizza drops Back on the paper plate Grease splattering Eyes wide Heads turn Bodies shift in their seats To see the sound Strange noise From the little table Table of four Laughing it off All things resume They continue to eat That greasy, cheesy pizza Talk of life Current events Bites of pizza Two slices left Split and taken Being eaten When... Slide The table So killer Slides to one Hitting their gut Making them grunt Pizza drops Heads turn Bodies shift Movement from all about The pizza place Eyes fall upon them Laughter Then the table is fixed Repositioned Then the pizza Cheesy and greasy Is devoured Talk goes on All resumes After a time The four leave Cleaning up their trash And leaving behind That killer table. - Jay M November 28th, 2019
My mom, sister, my friend Cadence and I went to Bronx pizza the other night for dinner. The table slid to our guts twice, and we made a joke about "the killer table". So, I said I'd write a poem about it. Here it is. :)
